a cup of coffee
by Jim Benzarrhythmia
could it be another morning?
ungodly
perhaps I’m dead
oh for the climate of dreams
found lacking, found
casting aspersion
on daybreak
full of songbirds
full of meaningless
ennui or conflict, snarling
eggs be damned, give me coffee 05/21/2007 Author's Note: published in Calliope Nerve

| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 05/22/07 at 04:39 AM a special blend;
a lift above all lifts and certain to arouse the senses;
"Klaw", they so aptly called it in the primal days.
Give us Klaw.
A Benz-poem equivilant, ... yes!

| Posted by Joan Serratelli on 05/24/07 at 12:17 PM Give me coffee or give me death! I'min total agreement- love everything about it- the smell, the noise it makes while perking...and of course, the taste. I really enjoyed this piece- thank you! |
